People all over the world dream of owning their own business. Two things stand in the way of realizing this dream. First, what kind of business would it be? You just know that if you had the perfect idea you could make it work. You are certain that someday you will know what "it" is and you will feel it in every bone of your body.
Second, how to describe your dream so you can convince others that it can become a reality. In practical terms, you need to "get it down on paper" which means creating a business plan. At this point you're sure to feel overwhelmed about where to begin. This is why people often turn to consultants who can help them develop their business plan.

The business plan needs to be solid and cover all aspects of your endeavor. You will be defining the who, what, when, where, how and why of your idea. Here are just a few examples of what is included in each category:
Who outlines potential partners, investors, and customers.
What defines the product or service, the nuts and bolts of the operation, required materials, start-up and operating costs, profit forecasting.
When lays out a timeline until you are "open for business" and goes beyond that date, with milestones and critical dates that need to be met.
Where means your desired location and facility needs – a physical space as well as a virtual space (e.g. a website).
How encompasses everything from securing financing, analyzing the market, marketing the product or service, working the numbers.
Why is setting goals and metrics all along the way and not losing sight of your dream.
Without a comprehensive business plan, you risk your dream not becoming a reality. There are hundreds of resources available to help you write a business plan but it can still be overwhelming – especially if you don’t know where to start.
